Hi,

We have developed a graphical Rules editor based on GMF, by following the
Mindmap example. Its worked out great.
But now we need to move on to the next step, provide content assist inside
the blocks, (say how would i provide content assist inside the
Topic/Thread/ThreadItem block in the mindmap example)

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

Sheela

Hi Sheela,

I have experiment content assist in CellEditor with GMF editor. I use
org.eclipse.jface.fieldassist package's class. In concerned
EditPart.getManager(), I extend
TextDirectEditManager.createCellEditorOn() operation to create a
ContentProposalAdapter associated to the created CellEditor and I create
my custom IContentProposalProvider and IContentProposal to display my
custom proposals.

Hi list,

We have a plugin that defines a view and it depends on a GMF editor. The
view needs the name of the editor file, to pass it as a parameter in a
web service. We could deduce that from the URIEditorInput.

But now there is a feature request that requires access to the model.

I implemented it by opening the file (because I had the name) and
parsing the XML, but that was not my original idea. The whole model is
present as part of the editor. But how to get at it?

I have the IEditorPart and from that I want to access the model. I can
see in the Local variables that through the Edit(ing)Domain I can access
the viewers, and from there all the children on the diagram. But when I
try to code this, I am stuck at the URIEditorInput.

I hope I made myself clear. I have access to the code of the editor too.
So I can change it. But I would love to hear about a solution where
the editor code is not available.

Kind regards,

Jan

Excuse me for my previous post. I forgot to change the subject.
